Eer,
yea it is.
I drive a truck I paid $25,000 for, & having that insured is completely totally different than wasting money every month on a phone that can be replaced for less than $200 from ebay.
I have used a PPC since my xv6700 days & have never paid for & never needed insurance. I carefully take care of my phones, & the amount of money I have saved at this point in not paying monthly insurance fees would buy me another phone a couple times over even if I bought it at full retail (which I would never do anyway).
I guess it all depends what kind of a user you are. I have a co-worker who abuses his phone unmercifully & for him insurance is pretty much required. He manages to break his phone at least once a month when he has a good buzz on. He has layed it down at parties where he basically didn't know anybody & had it stolen three times (or he was so drunk he forgot where he left it).
He also thinks nothing of making a phony insurance claim. i personally don't really care that he does that, but it's not something I would do.
